What is it about women that they just go right for the guy that totally repulses them?

I think it's never too late to learn - or it's a lesson that's good to continue learning - that you need to treat everyone on a set with respect.

My first TV job was on an episode of 'Hannah Montana'... Since then, I've been fortunate to end up on shows that are just such a high quality, where the writing and material is incredible.

You wanna do a lot of backstory for your character - as an actor, you wanna research that. But on the show, it's fun to remain in that naive place as you go along, and be able to continue to discover things about your character as the writers come up with them.

I think Twitter is such a cool thing because it really is a direct line to the fans and for fans back to you, and it's such a new thing. I think in the past there's been usually fan mail and that's really good, but Twitter, it gets an immediate response.

I like to be in pain when I'm getting massaged. That way I know I'm getting my money's worth.

Money means better meals at better places.

A lot of people come to Los Angeles and think that they're going to be famous, just like that.

My parents are definitely reformed hippies.

I think I used to be lower maintenance. I think I'm slowly becoming higher maintenance.

I think it's important to be honest with yourself about what you want and it's important to be honest with your partner about what you need.

I don't know much about writing a show or being a show-runner on a show, but I can only imagine that when you first cast a show and you first do a pilot, there are so many components that you're throwing into the mix and you're not sure how they're going to develop.
